What is Reflexology?

​Reflexology is a natural healing art based on the principle that there
are reflexes in the feet, hands, and ears, which correspond to every
part, gland, and organ of the body. Through application of pressure
on these reflexes, reflexology relieves tension, improves circulation,
and helps promote the natural function of the related areas of the
body.​

How does reflexology work?

​Reflexology is very effective in reducing stress by putting the client into a state known as the “parasympathetic” mode of the nervous system. This state facilitates the body’s ability to re-balance its self-healing potential. Regulating nerve impulses and alleviating blockages allows the body systems to maintain an internal balance of “homeostasis.”
